Congrats to Pre-Allo's newest mod!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.

I think it was just so they could keep him under control by giving him responsibility.... J/K!

Congrats, dude!

And good luck.
 
I must say with this thread, I am curious. How does the mod selection process work on SDN?


Also...what's with the new "your post is being reviewed by the spam filter" messages? It always used to just post and be done. Has something new been added into the forum code?
 
Whoever chooses mods must be confused. That isn't Aslan. That's Mufassa.

A person is nominated by a current staff member (or can nominate themselves by PMing a mod about being considered) and the upper level staff discuss candidates and vote. Generally, we look for people with a presence in the forum, who reports posts that need to be moved or break the TOS, and who can keep and eye on things.

Yeah, we've been having a lot of trouble with spam recently. It's a big hassle for us to have to delete spam posts, and this new filter is doing a good job of stopping spammers from posting.

you can ask, but usually a mod nominates you for a forum in need. as some of you may have noticed, pre-allo's been a bit understaffed lately.

be prepared?
Congrats bleargh!

Being a mod is my dream 😍
(srs)
thanks dude, i'm sure they'll keep you in mind now

Gotcha. Makes sense.

Yep. I've noticed this. I feel like I am pressing the "report" button and typing the word "spam!" more and more often.

My dream was to eat a cookie!

I am now eating a cookie irl.

Seriously kids, learn from me and set your expectations low. It makes for a fulfilling life!

Yep. I just reported one, so you should have gotten it, 'though Orgo-Man countered that it's not spam, so.... Whoever's MCAT mod will get that. (It was the verbal virtuoso post..which I recall being determined to be a bit scammy from a few mos back.)


keep it civil dude..

Already practicing, I see! J/K!

You have GOT to be ****ting me!! bleargh is one of the biggest douches on here with his snarky comments. Who the **** thought that this would be a good idea? Seriously. Are you ****ting me?

This is a new low for SDN. Wow...👎thumbdown👎

You spent the time to create a new account just to get that off your chest? Do you feel better? You sound like my toddler when decisions are made about him that he doesn't have the mental capacity or maturity to understand.

Okay, maybe my last post was a bit much. But seriously, when have you ever seen bleargh actually be helpful and respond nicely? That's what I don't understand!! Isn't being a generally helpful person a prereq for becoming a mod?

This is absolutely ridiculous! 👎

Congrats, bleargh! It's better to be feared than loved. Repeat that to yourself in times of darkness.

Warning: If you can't handle blood, don't read this post any further.


Also, if you can't handle blood, you might want to reconsider your career path!

Hey guys, lets keep it nice.
Congrats bleargh....for all of the work you do here and in the MCAT forum, you deserve it.
 
Really? No one else except me thinks that promoting bleargh to a mod is a bad idea? Wow...

First, SDN becomes the new memebase with all the freakin pictures! Then, bleargh gets promoted to mod status? Ridic! What's next? ColeTheTroll becomes admin?
